I'm going through my inventory looking for extra items to sell. It's not bad enough that there's a boost, a trail, AND an explosion named "HoloData" but the icons for the boost and explosion look nearly identical!

Plus, they sort on Cert first (because that's so much more important than color) so I can't even tell how many TW items I have without scrolling.

Thanks for listening

The good news is that you can more or less ignore all the HoloData items because they're rocket pass items and therefor worth almost nothing, no matter what color they are.

Happy to keep it close on paper but it cannot be overstated how good these guys are; playing against a legitimate team is an entirely different game. The ball barely touched the ground during their possessions, just perfect aerial passes all match.

I made an aerial goal once. But I wasn’t sure it’s even possible on console with all the lag. Ever play with your hands in a bowl of pudding, and then your brain in a different flavor of pudding?

I play exclusively on console and the only barrier I have to aerial goals is my own skill so maybe check your connection and your TV settings

No no I play console and the only reason I’m getting beaten to the ball and losing those contests is because the PC players have better inputs and frames which is why I’m hard stuck diamond tyvm

My ps4 rocket league looks cleaner than my PC rocket league, it must be my graphical settings on my PC but plugging them both into the same monitor the PC just looks ever so slightly, I'm not sure, muddier, I'll try and take pics to compare

Not really, no. Anyone who's smurfing gets propelled up to high ranks so fast it's not like they're going to be stomping for too long until they're at their skill level any way. And if you do encounter a smurf, take the opportunity to get used to playing against a higher skilled player, and learn from it.

lol that reminds me, I was accused if being a smurf a couple of days ago.

Is there some trick to leaving a ranked match without getting the 5-min ban? I just started playing ranked again and have noticed way more d/c's as opposed to unranked.

If someone on your team leaves the game, you'll be able to exit as well without any penalty. You may get a vote to forfeit option but it'll be okay to leave any way.

Congrats Champ. I’m lucky to get Plat1 in anything. I’m realizing I’ve gotten old now and my skill ceiling is quite low.

Congrats. I dip into diamond in twos, but I've had to use snow day a couple times just to make sure I lock in the rewards, so no hate for a rumble champ from me.

Actually, more people should play snow day, it's really good.

If you're stalling out at plat one, I doubt you've hit your skill ceiling. Go into free play and just slam the ball as hard as you can, then catch up to it as fast as you can and slam it again over and over. Do that about 20 minutes a day for two weeks, and I bet you're not plat 1 anymore. Speed is the most important attribute in the game, and that will make you faster.

I've used rumble twice now to secure a new reward tier, champ back in season 10, and GC this season. Both times I got to that rank in 3s later in the season. Rumble teaches you to be more cautious in defense, which makes you a better teammate in standard 3s. Pressure is off now, push on!

Not having the "Quick Play/Play Again" options is super frustrating and dumb. Do not like.
